afaik shepards pie with other types of meats is called a cottage pie
Yeah but most people just call it shepards pie either way.
If I ordered shepherd's pie and it came with any meat other than mutton I'd be unhappy because it's not shepherd's pie. Maybe this is just a regional thing though, looks tasty anyway.
You disrespect fisherman's pie
Australia checking in. We love our pies. Pop potato on the top? Potato pie. Chicken instead of beef? Chicken pie. Lamb pie. Curry pie. Etc.
We also have shepherds pie but frankly that’s just a shitty potato pie without the pastry.
(Tongue in cheek, having some fun at the expense of the Poms getting all hot under the collar that someone mislabelled a cottage pie. Almost as bad as the yanks.)
Man the name of the dish is so not the point of this community. I stand by Lemmy in present state is far worse than reddit for pedantic or toxic behavior.
It looks really good OP, nice job! I'd eat it regardless of what you called it.
Agreed that people are getting too feisty up in here.
But that said, I’m a big fan of making WHATEVER topped-with-potatoes pie out of leftovers, and I’m sure my wife and I have done it with things that would cause the purists to lose their damn minds. I think we’re gonna make one with leftover Ethiopian this week.
And you're inviting me over for some?! Hell yeah!
Thanks lol so many people butt hurt about the name . I'm pretty sure the frozen shepherds pie you can buy at the grocery store also doesn't have lamb . It was very good I ate the whole thing and was super full .
This is correct about the frozen stuff. It's usually made with ground beef. Making it with steak (or lamb) sounds way better.
I suspect there's a direct correlation between education level and urges to be pedantic. When schooling hammered vocabulary into your head and punished you for misusing it, vocabulary being misused becomes tougher to enjoy.
Toxic though? You're not insulting or harassing someone, unless they're really thin-skinned.
This dish looks great!
Also I totally agree with the Lemmy comment.
I prefer the traditional recipe that uses actual shepherd, but they’re getting harder to find these days.
Cowherd's pie?
Cottage pie where I'm from
